Bush Mexican plan resurfaces

The Bush administration is pushing Congress to act on the president's plan for granting amnesty to millions of Mexican workers living and working illegally in the United States.

Amnesty and the related "guest-worker" issue have surfaced anew partly because Mr. Bush is preparing once more to take up the matter with Mexican President Vicente Fox in Monterrey, Mexico, on March 22.

For reply #159 by ratcat:

Jim Crogan writes for the LA Weekly,. He did a piece on the ME connection to the OKC bombing last Sept-Oct 2001 which I posted on the FreeRepublic back then. The article was entitled "Heartland Conspiracy" and the link for the original story ( still there) is:

http://www.laweekly.com/ink/01/45/9-11-crogan.shtml

I have been told that Crogan and Patterson have combined forces to do stories on OKC and work with the info provided them by the former KFORTV reporter Jayna Davis.

Will the new Jim Crogan piece you refer to come out in the LA Weekly as well as the Indy Star?

I get the impression that in Reagan's last couple of years, his cabinet (including VP George HW Bush) were increasingly the ones in control. From many reports, it was Bush calling the shots from behind the scenes. I too loved Ronald Reagan and support George W Bush in the war effort. However, I have always been leery of the Bush family's "globalist" open borders world.

Amen! Bush looses big time on this issue. How can he surrender our sovereignty.

Someone needs to sit President Bush down, and explain to him that if another amnesty is granted our biggest imports will soon be poverty, and disease. I pointed this out to a congressional candidate last nite, and he agreed.

Don't kid yourself. Bush knows exactly what he is doing. He is a smart guy, with smart advisors and all the data and analysis in the world. The only reasonable conclusion is that Bush wants the invasion from Mexico to continue even though we are up to our armpits with illegal aliens. Nothing else makes sense. Only Congress can head off this Amnesty disaster because Bush is going through with it.

Amnesty to illegals, but NO amnesty to the people who owe income taxes. Bush loves America, just not Americans.

"If we could find a way to move a substantial portion of the current illegal flow from Mexico into legal channels via some kind of temporary-worker program and combine that with new cooperative law-enforcement arrangements with Mexico, we could benefit the U.S. economy, [and] we could substantially reduce illegal immigration," the INS commissioner said.

What kind of anti-American two step, soft shoe, shuffle, sense is this suppose to make? Yeah, let's just make the illegal, legal, problem solved. You don't "substantially reduce illegal immigration by making the illegals legal. This moron may have found the answer to the "War on Drugs". What bone headed thinking.

For my part, Bush can't do enough posturing and posing about the "Empires of Evil" to ever get my vote, when his plans for our sovereignty is itself evil to the core and is just as damaging, perhaps more, as anything the Al Quada will ever accomplish in this nation.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

The federal government has the "deer in the headlights" mentality on this issue. Amnesty is the easy way out for them. And they make money to boot from the legalization process. It's a sorry state of affairs to run things this way, but they'll do it if we let them.

(BTW, glad to see you made the big time in Debby Morse's ranting.
Must be hitting a sore spot!!)

I agree. What makes immigration such a dilemma is the permanence of it. With enough time and resources America can most certainly destroy the terrorist networks that have wreaked havoc around the globe. The same can't be said about correcting gross mistakes in immigration as illegal immigrants develop roots in this country.

[MissAmericanPie]

You are right but as with the vote just passed on soft money it really does no good to call they just ignore you and do what they want to. The House and Senate have no fear of punishment when they violate the Constitution, I wish there were a way to put some teeth in some legislation in regards to prison time for elected officals that pass things like this that are a clear violation of the Constitution and the whole nation be able to vote up or down on it.

Thank you for the compliment, the lady sounded like a scalded cat over my comments, meow.

All right, I've been cought twice - can I hope that Alan Keyes runs again?

If not, then who outside the Rep's has anything to offer anyone still rational enough to avoid McCain, socialists, and other mind-numbing alternatives?

(Seriously)

[DLfromthedesert]

Honey, we're shcrewed !! Unless someone IN the Republican Party with cojones puts brakes on this madness.

[norton]

I sure hope that "DL" stands for Darlene or something like it..
but you're right:
alternatives outside the slightly-right-of-center party don't stand much chance other than to dilute what was there before.

[DLfromthedesert]

LOL!!! It's Darrell Leonard ... just kidding.

Anyway, hopefully we can work from within the party; there are a LOT of people who are against this.

Bump!
